Tia Mowry attended the People’s Choice Awards wearing TACORI diamond earrings! The actress, who was nominated for Favorite Reality Celebrity, sparkled in one-of-a-kind diamond tassle earrings (Price Upon Request). http://www.tacori.com/.

I love Tia, but I wish someone would take that half wig off her head. The smokey eye – nude lip combo is very fitting, though

What do you think of this small town boy living in a lonely world?

Below is a bird’s eye view of Jason Wu for Target. From what we can see so far, the collection encapsulates everything Jason Wu is about: class, sophistication, elegance, femininity… we could go on forever. Do you think Jason will send Michelle Obama a few pieces from this collection.

Despite the wallet-friendlier price tag, Jason Wu hasn’t compromised on quality, offering tasteful designs that look much pricier than what they are going for. You can expect to find cute dresses, flirty silhouettes, nautical designs, and adorable Peter Pan collars.

Jason Wu for Target launches in February

 The collection hits Target stores and online on February 5th. Be sure to wake up early because we all know when these high end designers team up with Target the collection sells out in minutes — think Missoni for Target and Mulbery for Target.

Remember when the best celebrity endorsement deal Rihanna could get was with an umberella brand? Fast forward and this Barbadian beauty has been the face of Gucci, CoverGirl, Got Milk and Clinique Happy.

Now, we can add designer at Armani to her client roster

Rihanna brings her stylish taste to a six-piece collection of jeans, jackets and bandanas designed with Armani

The line is in stores now.

Anyone who knows me knows that I LOVE FUR. I love wearing it, touching it, looking at it. And, even though I can’t afford Blackglama, I LOVE the luxurious styles, exclusivity, elegance and sophisication of the brand.

Following Blackglama’s most successful “What Becomes a Legend Most?” ad campaign to date, featuring Janet Jackson, the brand announced the launch of the Janet Jackson Blackglama collection. The line of luxe fur outerwear and accessories will debut in stores in November.

"The art of fashion is one of my great passions,” states Janet Jackson. “I've worked for years to bring a collection into the world. Partnering with Blackglama is very exciting."

The collection is comprised of 15 pieces ranging from coats, jackets, vests, scarves, gloves and other accessories. All contain both classic and contemporary elements and utilize Blackglama mink in conjunction with other materials such as leather.

The line is priced for the luxury market and will retail in the Fur Salon at select Saks Fifth Avenue and the Maximilian Fur Salon at select Bloomingdales.

I prefer to wear contact lenses for a number of reasons. Contacts give me the freedom to wear my favorite hats without too many face accessories. And, I have peripheral vision once I place the soft lenses in my eyes. But every once and a while, I’ll start to feel sassy and don a pair of super chic glasses. Trendy, fashionable frames can cost a couple hundred bucks – not to mention the cost of lenses. Who wants to spend that kind of money where there are options available?

For the first time in my life, I purchased a pair of glasses online with the gift card sent to me from GlassesUSA.com. The process was super easy. I selected the frames that I wanted, plugged in my prescription from my local ophthalmologist then proceeded to check out. I can’t believe how affordable the prescription glasses were.  My new eyeglasses were on my face in less than a week, but if you need then in two days – there’s an option for that,  too.

These are the vintage, cat-eye frames I selected from Glasses USA. They are called iSee706

iSee 706 was only $78 including lenses. They have an ultra feminine feel. I love the elegance of the jet black color

I bought these frames at TJ Maxx a few years ago. I still love them. The size are perfect for my funky fashion days and the leopard is fierce...MEOW!

GlassesUSA.com has a huge selection of glasses all with a lowest price guarantee and a 100% satisfaction guarantee. That means if you find the same glasses elsewhere at a lower price, they will refund the difference!

Plus you can be sure to find the best looking pair of frames for you by using their virtual mirror that lets you to “try on” your glasses before you buy them. When you find a pair you like, you can send a pictures to your friends to get their opinion.

So, the next time you need to buy glasses, be sure to check out Glasses USA!

Leather is one of my obsessions — well, let me retract — leather and fur are my obsessions. It feels so good saying this because everyone loves fur and leather, but most are afraid to admit so. This faux fur faze is out of control — give me real, natural animal products any day.

Leather is one of the hottest fashion trends this Fall. Learn how to care, clean and maintain leather garments and accessories with the Professional Leather Cleaners Association, a not for profit trade group, that provides information to make leathers and shearlings last a very long time. Leather ages gracefully and can last a lifetime with the proper care right from the start:

•  Always hang leather garments on wide or padded hangers to maintain their shape.  Use shoetrees in footwear and stuff empty handbags with tissue to help retain their shape.
• Never store leather goods in plastic or other non-breathable covers.  This will cause leather to become dry.
• Allow wet or damp leather to air-dry naturally away from any direct heat source.  Leather can be treated with a conditioner to restore flexibility while suede can be brushed with a terry towel to restore its look.
• In winter, promptly remove salt deposits from garments and footwear by sponging with water; follow with the above treatment for wet or damp leather.
• Avoid very humid and dry environments as well as direct sunlight.
• Do not use waxes, silicone products or other leather preparations that will impair a garment’s ability to breathe.
• Wrinkles should hang out.  If ironing is desired, set iron on rayon setting, use heavy brown wrapping paper as a pressing cloth on right side of the garment and a quick hand to prevent overheating and shine.
• Avoid spraying perfumes or hair sprays while wearing your garment and do not apply pins, adhesive badges or tape.  Wearing a scarf at the neckline will help keep hair and body oil away from the collar.
• Hems may be fixed with a tiny amount of rubber cement.  For best results, see a leather care professional.
• All products formulated for at-home use should be tested on an inconspicuous part of the garment.

On September 10, 1991 photographer Scott Tugel  borrowed some Donna Karan samples for a photo shoot he was doing in NYC.

He took this picture.

I’m sure after he took it, he thought he had gotten the perfect shot. What he couldn’t have known is that it was literally an eery…
